Manhattan Skyline
Unrivaled views of Midtown skyscrapers, Central Park, and the Empire State Building immediately following departure from LGA.
George Washington Bridge
The massive suspension bridge connecting Manhattan to New Jersey over the sparkling Hudson River.
Mount Monadnock
One of the most climbed peaks in the world, standing prominently in the distance as you enter New Hampshire airspace.
New England Forests
Dense, rolling canopies of the Pioneer Valley and southern New Hampshire hills, especially vibrant during autumn.
Book a window seat on the left for the best chance of seeing the NYC skyline during the initial banking turn. Evening flights are particularly scenic as the sun sets over the Hudson Valley to the west. In October, this side provides prime viewing for peak fall foliage colors in the Massachusetts and New Hampshire highlands.

Long Island Sound
Beautiful views of the Connecticut coastline, harbors, and the northern shore of Long Island.
Hartford Skyline
Clear sightlines of the Connecticut capital, including the recognizable gold dome of the State House.
Quabbin Reservoir
The massive, sapphire-blue expanse of Massachusetts' largest inland body of water surrounded by wilderness.
Merrimack Valley
The historic industrial waterway and the red-brick mill buildings of Manchester as the plane descends into MHT.
The right side is ideal for morning flights when the sun illuminates the Connecticut shoreline and the Quabbin Reservoir. On exceptionally clear days, look far to the east to potentially spot the Boston skyline or the Atlantic coastline. This side offers a great perspective of the Merrimack River's curves during the final approach into Manchester.
